Lex and Gabriel, too. Eagle Eye [⅓ Badger Trio] Felon & Kafka ♥ Gilderoy Lockhart <3 [TEAM 947!] Oh, dear Merlin, what the---??
Lotus blinked, repeatedly, as Airey and Dante had their little one-on-one... whatever it was. She refuses to address either of them as Hook or Peter Pan. REFUSES. So, it was Airey and Dante. Also, breathing was happening because this was a lot to witness in mere five minutes.
Calming breaths. Like the ones in yoga.
Mmmhmm.
Then Lex came up with the brightest explanation for this. And the girl whispered again, agreeing with her best friend. "I believe so. Wait, you don't remember where the book is??" THANKS FOR THAT, LEX. Her suggestion was way off, though, there was no need to burn books! Except Divination ones, maybe, depends. "No, this is no proper reason for burning books. And don't mention this nearby Jeremiah." Though it proved to be a wonderful distraction once. But she also almost gave him a heart attack.
However... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!!!!!!
SMEEEEE? Wh--?! Her eyebrows went up. BOATSWAIN?! WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! Why EXACTLY was she NOT the first mate, huh?! Alice Fischer was GONE, and she still DIDN'T get first mate. Funny how she was under the misguided impression of being someone's Number One. GRANTED, she was in charge of the crew, technically speaking, but EXCUSE US, she will not have it. Lotus didn't know how to feel about it.
Nothing was said. Ssssiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilence.
Not even Lex's LOOK was registered because, BECAUSE EVEN THE TOUSSAINT KID WAS DEEMED INTELLIGENT IN HER PRESENCE. Er, actually, she breathed again, trying to keep as cool, calm and collected where possible. Part of her wanted to leave ASAP, knowing that Airey probably won't remember this, but... maybe she should stay, keep the sane people in check. Sane. LOL, this was Hogwarts. NO.
She will NOT eat the ice cream. We're not going through this again, Airey Flamsteed. We accept your tea, but nothing else. And ice cream at Hogwarts was prohibited. To ingest, that is. So she was with Tobias on this one, and she pushed the packets away from her. Nope.
And why were people being so loud, OMG!?
Okay, she was certain if she left no one would notice except for Lex, and she wouldn't say anything, because what sort of a best friend would she be if she did, hmmmm?? Her eyes wandered around, and noticed the yearbook boy, Gabriel, close by. He looked just as distressed and she felt. Poor guy. |
